A very bad experience

I don't know what organization is grading accommodations with stars in Catania, but this is not a 3-star accommodation... barely a 1-star, if at all. The place is old, dirty and in very poor condition. It needs complete renovation. In addition, the bed has broken springs, the pillows are hard and not really useable and the shower is partly clogged. The room does not look at all as it is shown in the photo. We paid in advance, so we had to stay there, but this place should not be listed in hotels.com. The only good thing is that it is located very close to Piazza del Duomo.

Owner was very friendly and made sure we were taken care of and had why we needed. He was extremely helpful with information and suggestions about visiting the area. Location was perfect, just a 3 block walk to the main dining and shopping area, not to mention all the historical sites that were truly breathtaking

Close to Centrale station

Walkable distance to Centrale stations and the shopping area. Staff is friendly and helpful. The only down side is that you have to drag your luggage up to level 2 but if that’s not an issue, overall experience is pleasant. Room has all the basics you need.

Convenient location, friendly staff

Basic accommodation in central location. Noisy road but this was expected as I'd researched it before booking so I took earplugs. Booked a quadruple room for 3 people so we had plenty of space. Double bed was quite uncomfortable as mattress needs replacing. Single bed was average but sofa bed was very comfortable which my daughter slept very well on (only suitable for child size). Would benefit from having a small fridge in the room to keep drinks cold. Air conditioning worked well and kept room cool.

Great little B&B

Great little B&B with a nice breakfast and wonderful staff. While staying there I fell mildly ill, and when my girlfriend went to ask for directions to a pharmacy the staff instead gave her some painkillers and a couple of snacks so I wasn't taking them on an empty stomach - great service. The B&B is in a good location, close to sites and transport links. Highly recommended.

bread and breakfast in the heart of catania

From the outside it looks shabby, it is old, but when you reach the second floor and you enter into the Bed and Breakfast you forget everything and you see a whole new scenario, it is newly refurbished, the rooms are spotless, staff are extremely welcoming and friendly, breakfast was very fresh and good.. very worth the price we paid...

No parking, shady characters walking around, hookers on the corner, four flight walk up to the B&B. It wasn't worth it for us. Not recommended.
